<p>I am currently going to be a senior enrolled in high school, and I was thinking of self studying an ap test this year, however Im stricken between Physics C or Music Theory. I plan to major in Mechanical or Aerospace engineering, however I want to also play music for the rest of my life.</p>
<p>My junior year i took AP English Language and AP Physics B. I earned a 4 on English and a 3 on Physics B, and next year I'm signed up for AP Lit, Calc AB and Us Gov. These 3 classes combined with Jazz Band and Marching band give me 5 classes, so its a light schedule. </p>
<p>My original plan was to take Physics C as an independent study in my B teacher's class and earn a grade and class credit based on curriculum he'd assign me. I love physics, and found it to be easy once I understood how to approach any problem, being one of few who actually passed the ap exam. </p>
<p>However I'm also an avid musician, arranging pieces for a separate band I'm in, and being one of the top players at my school. I have perfect pitch and have a passion and great knowledge for music. Self studying Theory with our schools choir teacher would be my other option. And I believe I'd also earn class credit based on my work.
Tldr; I love both Music and Physics, and want to self study either. I'd like to have 6 classes max instead of all 7, and still have a life outside of school and extracurricular activities. Which class would I be better off studying in?</p>
